Q: How long are walks or drop in visits?
We ensure every visit or walk is allotted 30 full minutes of time with our staff unless otherwise instructed. We promise to spend 30 minutes door to door, meaning we will be in your home with your pet for 30 whole minutes, this time includes time getting your dog ready for a walk.
Q: What if I'm traveling but don’t want to board my dog?
If you wish to keep your dog in their own home we offer packages that include 3 drop in visits per day for feeding, potty, play and exercise. Additional visits or walks can be added for a fee. See the services tab for more details.

Nikki is AMAZING in every single way! Super flexible, amazing prices and our pup absolutely ADORES her. She is always prepared with treats and water. Even went as far as bringing a ramp so our dog didn't have to jump in and out of her car when our pups leg was hurting. And can't forget the times she was on the side of the road dressing our dog up for birthdays and holidays 😂 Forever recommend her and the only person I will ever trust to take care of our dog the same way we would!

I CANNOT say enough about Niki from Humble Hounds! She’s kept my foster dog twice within the past two months (once for two weeks after his neuter because we’d had a vaca planned before we got him), and she took phenomenal care of him. She checked his incision constantly, gave him a ton of snuggles and sent me updates, pics and videos daily… she’s just an overall fantastic person. Our foster pooch loves her and she follows requests to a “T”. She also makes time on her busiest days to come and exercise him whenever we need her, which has been an amazing help when things pop up, like work requiring we stay later than usual. We’ve been so fortunate to find her, and strongly recommend her to anyone looking for a stable, reliable, responsible, kind and loving dog walker/dog sitter!
